Split Fiction Hits 2 Million Sales After Just 1 Week

Hazelight Games' latest co-op adventure, Split Fiction, is enjoying a phenomenal launch, selling 2 million copies in its first week. Released on March 6th for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, the dual-protagonist story quickly became another triumph for the studio. Hazelight celebrated this strong start on social media, expressing their delight at the overwhelming support from fans, both new and returning.

Just 48 hours after launch, Split Fiction had already sold 1 million copies. An additional million copies were sold in the following five days, showcasing remarkable momentum. Considering Split Fiction's co-op nature, the actual player count is significantly higher than the number of copies sold. This impact is further amplified by the game's Friend's Pass feature, allowing one player to purchase the game and grant free access to a friend. With continued social media buzz, sales are expected to climb even further.

Hazelight's previous title, the 2021 Game of the Year winner It Takes Two, saw a similar trajectory, selling approximately 1 million copies within weeks of its March 2021 launch. This number soared to 10 million by February 2023 and an impressive 20 million by October 2024.

IGN's review of Split Fiction praised it as "an expertly crafted co-op adventure that pinballs from one genre extreme to another."
